0:16.0	At a time when change is constant and we are pulled in far too many directions, we need a way to stay present to life and to increase our ability to remain calm, think clearly, and maintain our well-being. Many studies indicate mindfulness improves our mental, emotional, and physical health.
0:22.0	On a mindful moment with Theresa McKee, you can learn
0:25.6	how to practice mindfulness and enjoy its many benefits. Tune in for guided
0:30.3	meditations and to hear tips and advice from some of the most respected
0:34.8	experts in the fields of mental health and mindfulness. The world truly can be a
0:40.5	better place. It all starts with a mindful moment.
